A “Lil Positivity”: D-Wade Surprises Swirly Miami High School Student By Showing Up To Her Prom After YouTube Proposal [Video]

Dwyane Wade Surprises Miami High School Senior When He Shows Up To Her Prom

Dwyane Wade would have been in Chicago for a Heat playoff game Friday night if he hadn’t helped eliminate the Bulls with a big fourth quarter two nights early.

So how did Wade fill the opening on his schedule?

By attending the senior prom of an Archbishop Coleman Carroll student who had asked Wade multiple times to attend school events with her.

Wade surprised Nicole Muxo and her classmates at the West Kendall school by showing up just before 9:30 p.m. at the LaJolla Ballroom in Coral Gables. Last month, Muxo asked Wade in a YouTube video to be her date for the prom.

Wade explains why he decided to accept Nicole’s lofty request:

“She continued to keep going for it – no matter how many times I said I am going to be busy,” Wade said.

Wade said Muxo sent her a direct message on Twitter on Thursday saying: “This is the address, this is where I’m going to be just in the case.”

Wade said “when I got that, I said, “I won’t be doing nothing tomorrow night and I can go and make this a memorable moment for her.”

Wade called Muxo moments before walking into the prom “to tell her to have a good night” but did not tell her that he was outside.

“And then I got off the phone and walked in. It was kind of cool,” he said.

Awww, how sweet.

Muxo told reporters that she invited Wade because “he’s my favorite player and I think he’s a positive role model.”

Said Muxo: “I was so surprised. I didn’t expect it at all.”

Muxo’s date, Laurent Chaumin, was a good sport. “At least we both know how to dress,” he said.

Wade cracked, “I’m the third wheel. I’m like both their dates.”

Afterward, Wade posted on Twitter: “I had a blast at Prom. Never be 2 scared to ask.”
